Raleigh Automobile Accident Induced Sciatica – Sciatic Nerve Personal Injury
January 7, 2012
Your sciatic nerve goes from your spinal cord down through your buttock and the back of your legs. Sciatica commonly results from pressure being placed on the sciatic nerve roots and refers to pain, numbness, and tingling which radiates down the back along the nerve itself. Causes of such pressure include herniated discs, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and direct trauma to the nerve roots. Sciatic pain may go after a few months or persist, depending on the underlying cause. If the pain persists, an MRI may be necessary to determine that underlying cause.
The medical bills associated with diagnosing the root cause of your sciatica and treating it can get expensive. If your injury was caused by the negligence of someone else, you should seek immediate legal counsel to recover the expenses associated with such treatment, as well as, fair compensation for your pain and suffering.
